Lonely Planet review for Cathedral

Gniezno’s history and character are inextricably intertwined with its cathedral, an imposing, double-towered, brick Gothic structure. The present church, which you may recognise from a common 2zł postage stamp, was constructed after the 1331 destruction of the previous Romanesque cathedral by the Teutonic Knights. It changed a lot in later periods: chapels sprouted all around it, and the interior was redecorated in successive styles. After considerable damage in WWII, it was rebuilt according to the original Gothic structure.
